St. Peter’s Prep 8, St. Joseph 4: The Falcons squandered a 3-0 lead and endured their second consecutive late-inning collapse against one of New Jersey’s best teams, this time against fifth-ranked St. Peter’s Prep in the Autism Awareness Baseball Challenge.

About a dozen professional scouts were on hand to see St. Peter's Prep ace Jack Carey, owner of a fastball that has topped out at 94 mph and who will likely be selected in the 2018 MLB First-Year Player Draft.

St. Peter’s Prep rallied for five runs in the bottom of the sixth to snap a 3-3 deadlock. After senior righthander Kyle Subers, who was stellar for his third straight outing, allowed the first two runners to reach base in the sixth, reliever Nick Estes allowed a bunt single to load the bases. Estes responded with a strikeout and a pop out before walking in a run on a borderline pitch that St. Joseph felt should have been a called strike three. The next batter drove a ball to deep center field, which Jon Sot tracked down, but the ball caromed off his glove and over the fence when he collided with the fence for a grand slam.

St. Joseph answered with a run in the top of the seventh to produce the final margin.

Tom Faggioni gave St. Joseph a 3-0 lead with a three-run homer off Carey, a senior righthander and a Duke University signee who threw a five-inning perfect game in a mercy-rule victory over Old Bridge in his last start.

Carey entered the contest having fanned 30 batters in 16 innings. Sot extended his hitting streak to 16 games, collecting two hits, obviously not an easy task against Carey. Sot's streak dates back to last season.

St. Peter’s Prep chipped away at the early 3-0 deficit, scoring single runs in the second, fourth and fifth innings. All three runs off Subers were unearned.

Earlier this year, Subers and St. Joseph defeated St. Joseph of Montvale, which was ranked No. 9 in the state at the time, and dropped a 9-6 decision to Bergen Catholic, another Top 10 team in New Jersey.

Subers was the hard-luck loser in that contest, as well, allowing six runs (only two of which were earned).

According to Perfect Game’s class of 2018 rankings, Carey is the fifth best overall prospect in New Jersey and the Garden State’s second best righthanded pitcher. Perfect Game ranks Carey nationally as its No. 199 overall prospect in the class of 2018, as well as the No. 71 righthanded pitcher.

“He’s a true power arm,” Duke University head coach Chris Pollard said in a press release announcing Carey’s signing with the Blue Devils. “Jack’s physical tools – his ability to throw strikes coupled with a plus fastball – give him the opportunity to come into our program and contribute early.”

Westfield 12, Colonia 11: The Patriots (7-3), who opened the season with a six-game winning streak, have now dropped three of their last four, all by a single run.

More details of this game will be made available when they are provided.

North Brunswick 8, Bernards 1: With the Autism Awareness Baseball Challenge win over the Mountaineers in a rematch of last year’s meeting between the schools, which Bernards won in 12 innings, the Raiders improved their record to 7-4 and are now one victory shy of equaling their win total of a year ago.

North Brunswick took a 3-0 lead in the second inning on Andrew Tan’s two-run double and Caleb Rodriguez’s sacrifice fly.

Winning pitcher Steven Mihalenko went the distance. He allowed four hits, fanned three and walked one.

Kelson Hopson belted a homer for the Raiders in the third inning.

A.L. Johnson 10, J.P. Stevens 8: In a game that featured three lead changes, the Crusaders took the lead for good with a single run in the sixth and added an insurance tally in the seventh to produce the final margin.

The Hawks allowed two runs in each of the first two innings, but answered with two runs of their own in the bottom half of each frame to forge consecutive ties.

J.P. Stevens scored four times in the third to take an 8-4 lead. A.L. Johnson responded with a four-run rally of its own in the fifth to forge a tie.

East Brunswick 13, Northern Burlington 3: Mike Falco and Brandon Rosenthal each belted a round-tripper for the Bears, who have homered a total of nine times in their past four games.

East Brunswick (8-1) extended its winning streak to seven games. During the streak, the Bears have outscored opponents 83-23 and are averaging 11.9 runs per game.

The Bears again received balanced offense with eight players registering at least one hit apiece.

Rosenthal finished 3-for-3 with four RBI and two runs scored, while teammates David Bermudez (two runs), Jacob Bauman (two RBI) and Mike Sutton (two runs) had two hits apiece. James Schuld, Sutton and Bauman each doubled.

Scott Dessel earned the win – East Brunswick’s fifth via mercy rule – allowing two earned runs on four hits and two walks over four innings.

East Brunswick used a seven-run outburst to build a 10-3 lead in the fourth inning.

Governor Livingston 4, South Brunswick 3: The Highlanders used a two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth inning to erase a 3-2 deficit while extending their unbeaten streak – which includes a tie with Cranford – to seven games.

The loss to the perennial state and Union County power snapped South Brunswick’s winning streak at six games.

Felix Quinones and Mike Reyes (run) each went 2-for-4 for South Brunswick, while teammate Kevin Reyes scored twice. Will Beck had two RBI and Kyle White plated one run for the Vikings (7-5).

None of the runs South Brunswick starter Marcus James (five innings) allowed were earned. James fanned four, scattered four hits and walked one before yielding to a reliever after throwing 74 pitches.

Beck and White both doubled. White’s double in the top of the sixth gave South Brunswick a short-lived 3-2 lead.

The Vikings, who led 2-1 after the first inning, stranded six runners.

Perth Amboy 8, J.F. Kennedy 1: The Panthers scored four runs in the second inning to provide winning pitcher Virgilio Cabrera with all the offensive support he would need as Perth Amboy (3-6) snapped a two-game losing skid.

Alex Nunez (3-for-4 with two runs and an RBI) and Darius Diaz (2-for-5 with two RBI and a run) paced Perth Amboy.

Chris Brito, Jesus Acosta and Jodarlyn De Los Santos each had a hit and an RBI for the Panthers. Teammate Bryan Valenzuela went 2-for-3 with three runs and an RBI to back Cabrera, who fanned four, walked three, allowed three hits and did not yield an earned run over five innings.

Sayreville 13, South Plainfield 1: Ethan Calcano went 4-for-4 with a double, three RBI and three runs scored as the Bombers registered 16 hits in a mercy-rule win.

Seven Sayreville players recorded at least one hit apiece in support of winning pitcher Christian Aich, who scattered seven hits, allowed two runs (one earned) and walked one while striking out four over five innings.

Bryan Fernandez (one double) and Drew Zimmerman (two doubles) each went 3-for-4 with a combined seven RBI and a combined four runs scored. Kyle Richards and Anthony Gambardella each scored twice.

Dylan McTonic contributed a pair of doubles and three RBI to the win, while teammate Tom Ruck went 2-for-3 with a run scored.

Billy Keane went 2-for-2 with a pair of doubles for the Tigers (4-7), while teammates Mike Stanczak, Chris Shine, Mike Marrero and Rob Gonzalez had one hit apiece.

The Bombers rallied for seven runs in the third inning to build a 13-0 lead.

Sayreville’s offense appears to be feast or famine as the Bombers have outscored teams 34-4 in three of their victories – winning by an average of 11.3 runs per game – but also have two one-run wins (2-1 and 1-0) to their credit.

South Plainfield mercy-ruled the enigmatic Bombers 11-1 earlier this season.

Middlesex 11, New Brunswick 1: Tyrus Chippendale went 2-for-4 with three RBI to support righthander Pat Kannaley, who fanned eight and yielded three hits while going five innings in a game shortened to six frames via the mercy rule.

The victory was the ninth straight for Middlesex (9-1). New Brunswick (3-4) was outhit 10-3 and committed seven errors.

Jared Venutolo went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored. Jack Hnylycia singled twice, plated two runs and scored once. Michael Schweyher had a hit, a run and an RBI. Jarrett May contributed two runs and a single to the win.

Johenny Peralta went 2-for-2 and teammate Kerandy Gomez had New Brunswick’s other hit.

Middlesex rallied for seven runs in the fourth to take a 10-1 lead. The Blue Jays invoked the mercy rule with a run in the sixth.

Spotswood 9, Carteret 7: The Ramblers scored five times in the top of the seventh to trim a seven-run deficit to two and had the tying run at the plate when the final out was recorded as the Chargers hung on to remain undefeated in the Blue Division.

Senior catcher Mike Izzo went 3-for-4 with a double and Derek Buhl (2-for-3) scored three runs for Spotswood (6-2 overall, 4-0 division). Teammate Nick Vincelli went 2-for-3 with a triple and two RBI. He also made some timely defensive plays.

Winning pitcher Evan Scarduffa improved his personal mark to 3-0, allowing two unearned runs on four hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out six and threw 96 pitches before yielding to a reliever.

Designated hitter Felix Norono had the lone multiple-hit game for Carteret (4-5), going 2-for-4 with two RBI.

Freddy Rago contributed a single and two RBI to the victory.

Edison 14, South River 4: Jason Smith went 5-for-5 with five RBI and fell a homer short of hitting for the cycle to support his own cause on the mound as the game's winning pitcher.

Edison (4-5) has scored a total of 38 runs in its last three victories. The Eagles rebounded after defending league tournament champion St. Joseph swept them in a doubleheader.

Smith, who took a 10-0 lead into the bottom of the list, hurled five and a third innings. He allowed four hits, three runs (two earned), walked three and fanned three.
